Novel Notes by Jerome K. Jerome, Fiction, Classics, Literary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781603123129)

Following his infallible nose for unlikely situations, Jerome K. Jerome sets himself a Herculean task, as main character in his own novel: to fictionally compose another novel, in collaboration with a trio of his pipe-party bachelor friends: Jephson, Brown, and MacShaughnassy. In the tradition of his Three Men in a Boat, this might well have been entitled Four Men in a Pickle.
